bbUI - bb.onscreenready : how to manipulate innerHTML?

Hi,

 

Using bbUI toolkit, from my index.htm, I called bb.onscreenready with the following

 

<script type="text/javascript">
bb.onscreenready = function(element, id) {
	if (id == 'manage') {
		initializeDB();
	} 
}
</script>

 

on my 'manage' screen, I have the following 

 

<div data-bb-type="screen">
	<script id="manage" src="manage.js"></script>
	<center><div data-bb-type="title" data-bb-caption="manageScreen" ></div></center>
	<style type="text/css">
		body, html {
			background-color: White;
		}
	</style>
	<div id="results">
		<h1>Result should be here!</h1>
	</div>
</div>

 

and on my manage.js, once fired from onscreenready, supposedly change the content of id="results" to something else via document.getElementById("results").innerHTML = ('Changed!');

 

But this are not the case. Value for the object is null. Am I not doing it correctly?

Please use plain text.

Re: bbUI - bb.onscreenready : how to manipulate innerHTML?

Is this for Smartphone or Playbook?

 

Either way try putting the inializeDB() into a setTimeout() of a second and see if it works then. Not a solution a great solution, I am just wondering if the bb.onscreenready is firing off too early.

Try to access it through the element object:

 

element.getElementById("results").innerHTML = ('Changed!');

Please use plain text.
